You can grow them in-between tall bushy perennials that will give them some support. Or you can grow them in row and run sticks-and-twine along the rows, instead of staking them individually. Cheers, Sue Zone 6, Southcentral PA When I had "real" soil in Minnesota, I used a spade and dug a trench as deep as the depth of the spade, piled the dirt on one side of the trench, and placed the corms in the bottom of this trench. I then covered the corms to about a third of the depth of the trench. As they sprouted and grew, I gradually pushed in the remaining dirt until the trench was filled. Unless we had a severe storm when they were flowering, they seldom went over. John |
